[QUOTE="I'm A Banana, post: 5415382, member: 2067"] Trying to coddle and attract the elder set while neglecting the up-and-comers is a boneheaded business decision. The game needs to change and evolve, it needs to adapt, and it needs to keep trying to target those high school and middle school kids with free time and a basement. It needs to attract the WoW folks, the Harry Potter folks, the Pokemon folks, the Anime folks, the LotR Movie folks, heck, even the Twilight folks and the SAW folks. Of course, personally, I think a focus on tactical minis combat certainly misses [I]those[/I] marks, too, since...well...tactical minis combat isn't what people really gravitate to these things for. Now there is an element of tactics in a lot of these...but WoW's "aggro juggling" and Pokemon's "rock-paper-scissors-BFG" are streets ahead of 4e's tactical minis combat in terms of ease, speed, and even variety. 4e's system is nice and solid, but fluid and dynamic it ain't. ;) [sblock] [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv-bPeyrdHA"]Streets Ahead[/ame] [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
